The domain pancakerwap.finance is a confirmed phishing site engaged in brand impersonation targeting PancakeSwap, a popular decentralized cryptocurrency exchange. It poses an elevated risk by mimicking the legitimate platform to deceive users into disclosing sensitive information or transferring cryptocurrency under false pretenses. No drainer kit was identified, but the site operated as a cryptocurrency scam. As of the latest verification, pancakerwap.finance has been taken offline.
Technical indicators confirm the malicious nature of pancakerwap.finance. The domain was flagged by 1 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, including Gridinsoft, which assigned a trust score of 0/100. It appears on two security blocklists, PhishDestroy and ScamSniffer, and was registered through OwnRegistrar, Inc. on July 20, 2025. The domain resolved to the IP address 186.2.161.131, hosted under AS59962 (IQWeb FZ-LLC) in Belize, with no SSL certificate issued.

Accreditation and RAA context
Registrar accreditation and DNS abuse obligations
For this gTLD, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.
Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.
RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.
This timeline displays historical security and status checkpoints observed by the PhishDestroy automated monitoring network. It records domain lifecycle updates, scanner changes, and threat telemetry over time.
12 recorded events. These records describe collected evidence, outgoing notifications and publication; they do not confirm a complete investigation or a takedown.

A stored Cloudflare Radar report is available. The report link alone is not a malicious verdict and does not prove that every network field was captured.
